"A well preserved 1800's military post and barracks complete with tunnels! The view up and down the coast and inland up the Hunter River are well worth the price of admission. Newly renovated."
"Purely by chance this museum was the first place we visited in Newcastle. A helpful (volunteer) guide took us through the maritime history, development and geography of Newcastle all of which aided our exploration of the city. Can't recommend too highly"
"We spent 3-4 hours here and had a super time. We fed the baby sheep, goats and pigs, patted a koala and a kangaroo, took a tractor ride, and held a snake. It was low season so it was quiet, about a dozen visitors and a school group. The staff kept the school group separate which was good as the kids..." were very excitable!
The service for food and coffee was extremely slow but the food was reasonable when it arrived.
